Nano-titanium coating on glass surface to improve platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) quality.

The quality of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is contingent on the surface characteristics interfacing with blood. Titanium's superior platelet activation, surpassing silica, has made Titanium-platelet-rich fibrin (T-PRF) a favored autogenous bone graft material due to its extended degradation time. Pioneering a novel approach, this study aims to achieve an enhanced fibrin structure using glass tubes coated with nano-titanium, marking the surface's debut in our PRF production endeavors.

Fibrin clot adherence on cleaned and decontaminated titanium abutment surfaces: An in vitro study.

Statement Of Problem: Osseointegration is now primarily established, but soft tissue integration is still susceptible to failure and problematic on implant surfaces. So, implant dentistry is increasingly focusing on improving peri-implant soft tissue integration.

Purpose: The present study aimed to evaluate the blood fibrin clot formation and adhesion on the abutment after cleaning and decontamination and determine the suitable abutment surface associated with fibrin clot attachment.

Convalescent plasma therapy in critically İll COVID-19 patients: A retrospective cohort study.

Background: Convalescent plasma (CP) therapy can be defined as a passive immunity transfer approach involving the administration of plasma for therapeutic purposes to inpatients hospitalized due to an active virus infection. Passive immunity antibodies can reduce target organ damage and directly neutralize the responsible pathogens. A limited number of studies on the use of CP have reported that critically ill patients can benefit from CP therapy.

Innovative i-PRF semisurgical method for gingival augmentation and root coverage in thin periodontal phenotypes: a preliminary study.

Objectives: The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) on gingival thickness and gingival recession in individuals with thin periodontal phenotypes.

Method And Materials: In this prospective study, i-PRF was applied via a semisurgical method to augment 53 tooth regions with thin periodontal phenotypes. In order to ensure that sufficient blood clot formed on the side of the gingiva facing the bone and that i-PRF reached the area, a minimal incision was made with the help of a scalpel in the apical region of the relevant region, and the periosteum was elevated with a microsurgical instrument.
